The Mystery Cupcake Grid Wide Hunt

One of my favorite things about SL hunting is finding out about new shops and designers. I would never get to know most of these designers’ creations if I were just roaming around SL on my own. The hunts give me a chance to see their location, their posters, and then try out a sample to see if I want to make it one of my favs! The Mystery Cupcake Hunt is definitely one of those. I got to visit tons of previously unknown stores and I love them!

If you want to go cupcake hunting, you’d better hurry – the hunt ends tomorrow! For a full list of participating stores and SLurls, visit the Cabbit Patches blog.

April Top Designers Hunt

This hunt’s only got a few days left on it, but it’s not linear, so you can choose the designers you like best, or you have the ability to move on if you can’t find one. Check below for a list of designers and SLurls, as well as a fab prize pic.

Bloody Mess Treasure Hunt

You’ll spot these objects by the pool of blood they’re lying in… Be warned that you may encounter dismembered avs and other blood-thirsty torture objects. All part of the fun, as far as I’m concerned. You’ll need to search the entire sim, though, so don’t think this is going to be a quickie. However, by doing so, you get to see some amazing creations and scenery. Check the pics below. Keep your environmental settings on Sunrise or Sunset for the best experience.

When: April 22 – May 20, 2009

Number of bloody objects: 12 + bonus

Location: Fallen Gods Inc on Selidor

Rotten Egg Hunt – extended one week!

If you missed the deadline on this hunt because you got distracted by all the grid-wides, now’s your chance to hit it up. You still have until Sunday, April 26th to scour the Car Wash and Hell Bop sims for “rotten eggs.” That’s right – these are not the  translucent pastel, cute and cuddly eggs from your Bunny Hop. These guys emit a neon green haze, which makes you glad SL doesn’t have a “smell” feature.

When: April 15 – 26, 2009

Number of eggs: I found 15, but not sure what the total is

Location: Car Wash and Hell Bop sims

Spring is in the Air Grid-wide

There’s only one week left to grab your eggs on this egg hunt sponsored by AmberMyst Botanical Designs. If you are feeling overwhelmed by the 1000+ eggs on the Great Grid-wide, this may be more your style. 107 total eggs at some of my favorite shops in SL: Hopscotch, Earth Jewel, Secrets of Gaia, Trixxy’s, the list goes on. Find the complete list of participants on the hunt’s blog.

Peeps Hunt at Kalloni

Kalloni Mall has a sim-wide hunt for little purple peeps bunnies. They’re so realistic they made me go out and buy a package of the sugary guys.

Once you’ve taken care of the peeps craving, head over to Kalloni Mall and start hunting! This one has a little twist: each bunny contains a puzzle piece that when put all together will land you another grand prize. I’m still working on it myself, but once I get it, I’ll post pics. You’ve got one more week on this, and if you’ve been Bunny Hopping, you’ll probably welcome something other than pastel eggs to search for.

When: April 4-26, 2009

Number of bunnies: 25

Location: Kalloni Mall

How it works:
- Each bunny contains a piece of a puzzle. You should, therefore, find them all to put this puzzle together !
- They are numbered so that you know if you have them all
- The pieces are given on a random basis.
Those who will be able to piece this puzzle together will win an additinal prize consisting of a very nice mystery gift !
However, do not believe the bunnies will be easy to find….  as usual, you will have to search quite a lot and enjoy our shops at the same time…

As soon as you have the puzzle ready, please send a pic of it to Anyraya Braveheart either by IM or by mail (anyraya@orange.fr) to get your winner gift !

Additionally, should there be several winners, we will place their names into a drawing for L$ 1000.  The drawing will take place within a week of the hunt’s end.

Condom Quest 2009

This weekend only, Sn@tch City and Pulse are hosting a hunt for STD Awareness Month. Little colored condoms can be found lying about all over the place, both inside and outside. Most of the condoms are lying on the ground, but I found a few on walls or ledges as well. Be aware: Not all condoms are set to L$0. Some of them are sold for between L$10 and L$100, which is still a pretty significant discount off the regular price of the items.

When: April 17 – 20, 2009

Location: Pulse/Sn@tch City
